WE ARE BACK!  IT WASN’T EASY! WELCOME BACK ALL MICHIGAN STING MEMBERS! HAWKS   5     SHARKS   2 Sharks up 2-1 entering the final period, then the Hawks rattle off four unanswered goals for the decisive W!  The Sharks were so intent on shutting down Hawks center Billy Hagen, that they forgot about the Hawks second line which…

NO CLEARCUT TEAM TO BEAT – IN MY HUMBLE OPINION. SHOULD BE A VERY COMPETITIVE SEASON. HAWKS First and foremost, the Hawks are in good hands in the nets with their fiery and excellent goalkeeper!  They are good up the middle, but overall scoring could be an issue.  Goalie will see his share of shots. BRUINS Hmm.  D is a…

HAWKS Forwards are a very good group.  Don’t underestimate the goalie play.  Brian Miller can play! BRUINS I like this team a lot!  Forwards and D are very solid.  Goalkeeping is on the plus plus side! HABS Nice squad!  Forwards are going to put some points on the board and the defense will keep points off the board. WINGS Another…

HAWKS – I know with a Zach Wagner on your team – how can you go wrong.  But – to me, this team has the makings of a very subpar season.  There is some immense talent on this squad.  But also some pretty big questions marks. BRUINS – Very strong team!  Goaltending is excellent and this team will score. HABS…

HAWKS – Goaltending is outstanding!  I love the D!  Can’t argue with Billy Hagen leading the offense! BRUINS – The key to this squad is how healthy goaltender Mike Mostyn will be after basically missing all of last season due to a myriad of injuries.  Solid team. HABS – Strong defense on this squad.  Good to see sniper Jeff Tracy…
